ORDER DISMISSING APPEALS
These are appeals from district court orders denying objections to transfer of cases and denying requests for out of time appeals. Fifth Judicial District Court, Nye County; Robert W. Lane, Judge.
This court's review of these appeals reveals a jurisdictional defect. Specifically, no statute or court rule provides for an appeal from district court orders denying an objection to transfer of cases and denying a request for out of time appeal.1 Castillo v.

ORDER these appeals DISMISSED.
FOOTNOTES
